Bob Shop Seller Badge

Set of 4 antique framed historical prints.   The prints have been framed on board and are in good vintage condition.   They appear to be the original silver bromide photos.  One picture was loose in its frame.  I will replace it into the frame, but will not repair the back as you may want to reframe.   One frame is a little different from the others. I can take the pictures out of the frames and send them to you between sheets of card to protect them.   Let me know if you dont want the frames.

Herewith a little history from Wiki with regard to the “forerunner”  One photo has Durban waiting room.  The glass is non reflective.  Please dont hesitate to ask any questions.   This is a lovely set in good vintage condition.
